I am setting up a HT for a friend and considering the:
Swan (Diva) 5.2 (Front L,R)
C3 center speaker
R3 surround speakers
SVS PB2-ISD
Denon 3803
My problem is that I don't think that the Denon has enough power to adequately drive the speaker package at near ref. levels in a large room. I looked at the Outlaw Audio 950/M200 mono-block package and it seems promising. On closer inspection, it appears that the Denon 3803 may have a better Pre/Pro section than the 950. Any comments on whether I should purchase the 3803 and 3 of the Outlaw monoblocks for the front channels...and let the Denon amp section handle just the rears?
